Col. Boyd, of Birmingham, Conn.,,
who has been here two weeks, left on
Wednesday for Palatka. He made a
contract for clearing and setting out a
grove adjoining Keuka Heights before
he left.
VIM. Deubell, of Danbury, Conn. who
owns twenty acres south of town, arrived
on Monday; is making lots of friends.
He will make grove and lay the foun-

Mr.. German has purchased twenty

| Conn, Mai. Shaw and Ed. Rumley. of
| Keuka, went TO the raging Ochlawaha
and spent a day trying 10 straighten out
the crooks and bends in that famous
stream. They finally gave up the job
and returned in good order.
One of the most interesting sights
this way is the poultry farm of Rev. Y.
r. Hamer. Your reporter paid this place
a visit this afternoon, and was charmed
with the beautiful birds. He has pen
| of White Leghorns, a pen of White

these are the most attractive.
The most important sale this season
was the Keuka Springs. Mr.. Rumley
sold them with forty acres, to a wealthy
gentleman from Lee county, Illinois.
They will be improved.
The amount of sales in this vicinity
show that the people are not missing
Keuka. Ii is putting in more perma-

know of.
The Florida Southern Railroad will

the man who says in his catalogue that,
when out of varieties ordered, the money
will be refunded. PUTNAM

Our House of Lords.

The fights still going en- in some
Northern States over vacant seats in the
Federal Senate, furnish scandalous
exhibition little inferior to that afforded
by the Campbell trial. And, like the
Campbell tlial, the shameful spectacle is
destroying the last relics of a great
power; like the trial, these elections are
demonstrating the scandalous corrup
ton running riot among the ruling
classes-that the creatures already
bought and sold have as little place in
our Congress as members of the rotten
boroughs had in Parliament. If we
would not labor under the ills which are
sapping the life-blood of our brothers in
Europe, let us remain free,-let no man
rule us save by our direct consent-no
favored plutocrats replace the landed
aristocracy from which we freed our
selves in bloody revolution.
When our Constitution was framed,
it was thought dangerous to trust too
much power to the people. Some of our
wisest statesmen believed with Hamil
ton that any power enjoyed by the peo-
pie must be- first filtered through prIyi-
legged classSborn and educated to rule.
The Federal Senate was given as a COM
pr omise between the ideas of Hamilton
and those of jefferson. If the people can
be trusted with universal suffrage they
can elect their Federal Senators as well
as their members of the Lower House,
and ''giddy changes" may BE- prevented
by giving the Senators the same lease of
power they enjoy now.
The scandals SO common among the
noble families of England have inn
paired the confidence and reverence
formerly cherished for that ruling class;
Senate chamber is a disgrace to our
country and institutions we shall not
long endure.
The power of Rome was absorbed by
her plutocrats and transferred to he
emperors, the legislature of France en-
shaved her people and gave place to a
| soldier; the parliament of England made
itself absolute, and was made contempt
| IDLE by Cromwell. In these days when
public opinion is more powerful than ar
mics, the favored class need only make
itself ridiculous, obnoxious or danger
! GUS to ensure it's overthrow. Our mil
lionaire Senate" is guilty, as indicted, on
all these counts, and its existence under
its present aspect is as ridiculous as that
| of the English House of Lords, and
1 81 IL
Rump Parliament.
Let the people resume the power so
long vested in the State legislatures; let
their rulers cease to be the slaves of
their oppressors. The press gives us full
particulars of the auction now going on
in several States; the plutocracy is driv-
ing nails into the coffin which will soon
hold its abused authority. QueBt deus

"A Bonanza.
New York Star.


There is a bill before Congress which
extends the Government loan to the Pa
cific railroads. There is little opposition
to it on the ground that it is not neces-
sary or just. Every one can see that the
companies cannot pay their debts and
that the Government cannot buy the
roads. The companies cannot pay be
cause of their loss of business through
the diversion of traffic that has been
made by the opening of rival lines built
with the direct assistance of the Govern
mept.
The Government cannot buy the roads
because it cannot manage them. An at
tempt to do so would result in a scan
dalous and costly failure. This is an in
teresting situation-a debtor that cannot
pay, and a creditor that cannot enforce
the debt. 1t is a situation that delights
certain Wall street operators. Ii precisely
suits those who make money out of the
fall of prices. They are eager to have
the government press for payment, and
to have the companies unable to meet
the demand.
Such a complication, adroi,ly man.
aged, well seasoned with scandal and
acc ompanied by the blatant clamor of
newspaper denunciation, might bring
about the destruction of the stock of the
governments loan and the sale of the
lines to some association of capitalists
for about the amount of the first raort-
gage.
The wrcckers would like to be the buy
ers. They know well that the property
is worth all the charges upon it, and
that with time to pay the debt the stock
would be good They would have time
enough to paw the debt. for half of il
would have disappeared. They would
have a bonanza greater than has ever
been discovered, richer even than the
Comstock lode. This is prize worth
striving for. Active, ingenious and I'm
scrupulous men are striving for it with
might and main. 1t is the great lobby
scheme of the day. So great . one has
never been seen.
The Sun of yesterday says:
lone of the most powerful and dan
gerous conspiracies ever Matched between
Wall street and Washington is that
which is now lobbying tooth and nail
against the Pacific Railroad Funding
Bill. The hirelings of this gang stop at
nothing; reckless falsehood and the as
sassination of character are their untir-
ing industry, and their expedients are
as desperate as they are despicable."
This strong language is not too strong.
The parties to the conspiracy are we'll
known operators here. They can COM
mand no end of money. They can hire
blackmailers and slanderers, and news
paper assassins without number The
effect of their audacious operations will
not be limited TO the Pacific Roads.
The wrecking of those properties will
reduce the values of all railway securi-
ties. No wonder that the bears are
savagely at work. No wonder that the
jackals of the lobby are on the scent,
and that the vultures of the press fill the
air with their cries.

What Palauks Might Have Suffered
Stampede in LondOn-Sevenree n
Dead.
LONDON, January 19.-The hall in Prin-
cess street, Spitalfielj. where the fatal
panic occurred last night, presents a
scene of great disorder. Most of the fur
niture is broken, and blood-stained frag-
mehts of clothing, pieces of jewelry, etc.,
are in profusion upon the floor. Seven
teen dead bodies were taken from the
building after the panic. They We're all
found at the foot of the stone stairway
leading from the gallery, at which point
the people from the pit and those from
the gallery met. 1t was found that of
the dead, twelve were women, three
were boys. one was girl and the other
a man. The remains Were almost I'M
recognizable. EyewItnesses say the
manner in which strong men, who got
uppermost in the struggle at the door,
CRUSHED AND TRAMPLED On
those who fell down in the conflict was
indescribably ruthless and brutal. Har-
ris Goldberg, one of the dramatic club,
says that the stampede was caused by the
fright of an actor on the stage under
these circumstances In order to get
better view of the stage some boys
in the gallery climbed the gas-pipe. The
strain upon the pipe caused 1t to leak,
and some one in the audience shouted,
Turn off the meter :" \ simultaneous
cry of alarm was raised by one of the
actors, and this was quickly followed by
the cry of fire from several parts of the
hall. Instantly every one was on foot
and engaged in frantic efforts to reach
the door.
WOMEN SCREAMED AND MEN HOwLED
and cursed. Garments We're torn from
their wearers' backs by those rearmOst in
the mad race in their anxiety to break
through the crowd. and men and women
We'd with one another in the desperation
of their struggles to reach the street.
Mr.. Goldberg's wife was trampled to
death, his little son, six years of age, es-
capped unframed by climbing on the
mems shoulders and running over the
heads of the mass of people. No blame
is attached TO the managers of the hall,
who, it is shown, had complied with all
the requirements regarding the number
aid dimensions of the exits from the
building. The loss of life was wholly
caused by the frantic efforts of the peO-
pie in the gallery to force their way
down the main staircase.

Convict Labor.

Under the title "A Perplexing Prob
lem," the san discusses the annual re-
port Of the New York Superintendent OF
Prisons, and our own system Of convict
labor has been so severely criticized OF
late that the question is interesting to us.
Even in the climate OF New York, the
report shows that work is better for the
minds and bodies of the prisoners-the
physicians are decidedly Of opinion that
marked evil effects will follow a con-
tinued system of enforced idleness.
Says the Sun lit has been proved
that under the contract system the State
makes money out of the prisons, and the
convicts are protected in their health and
morals" If this is true in Neu York,
where the work must be carried on in
confinement, how much preferable 10 our
system where the convict is given
healthy labor in the open air, surrounded
by all the influences Of our genial
climate. The work given is not heavy.
1t does not necessitate night labor, and
the camps are located in the heart of our
pine woods, where the wealthiest people
of the country are anxious to seek reno
vstion and rest. Yet the System itself is
depicted in our Northern exchanges as
radically wrong, necessarily cruel and
bad in its influence on convict and jailer
and people. Is it possible that even the
great commonwealth of New York is
willing to learn q Florida and Georgia
that good may come from the South even
as il came from Nazareth while the
Pharisee doubted?
The system itself we believe to be
good. 1t is of beneficent effect to the
criminal, and lifts burden from the
citizen. If the evil flowing from it is
not inherent in the system itself, let us
reform it's abuses but endeavor to retain
the god. The absolute power too often
vested in the jailer must be kept within
bounds, because tyranny is too natural
to the best of us. In Florida the super
vision is exact and, we believe, thorough;
if any additional safeguards are neces-
sary, the Legislature can take all steps
which may seem advisable.
Meantime the abuses of the system
existing among us can be reformed with
out destruction to the system itself. We
must not judge a system by its abuses,
or our government would be overthrown
and the church of Christ even would be
adJudged bad. All evils are relative
only, and if we cannot do good to our
convicts and ourselves by making a
change, let Us continue to trust that lief,
us as a legacy Of the past; it is not nee
essarily bad because it is not new. The
only objection urged against convict la.
Dor in the North is, that it interferes
